Breaking News: Jets Trade for Eagles Edge Rusher Haason Reddick

Eagles, Jets Agree to Haason Reddick Trade

In essence, the deal is Bryce Huff and the 2026 third-round pick for Reddick, because the Eagles signed the former Jet during the first wave of free agency.

The Jets will take on Reddick’s base salary of $14.25 million, a roster bonus of $1 million, a workout bonus of $250,000, and an additional bonus of $500,000 for a total cap hit of $16 million. Reddick leaving will leave the Eagles with a dead cap hit of $20.515 million.

The Jets can reduce that salary to $1.21 million and spread the remaining $13.04 million over five years (four void years). That would reduce the 2024 cap hit to $3.818 million. They would still pay Reddick $14.25 million this season.

Many Jets fans have called Douglas “Trader Joe”. With the latest Jets trade, he continues to earn that deserved nickname.

Douglas’s trades include:

• Jamal Adams for picks that turned into Garrett Wilson and Alijah Vera-Tucker
• Sam Darnold — essentially — for Breece Hall
• Finally, this trade

This concludes the pre-draft offseason for the Jets, most likely. It also sets them up for a lot of offensive picks in the 2024 NFL Draft.

If Douglas can hit in another draft, the Jets could be set up for a good season in 2024. Many fans were upset that the Jets couldn’t re-sign Bruce Huff at the beginning of free agency. However, things are rapidly changing for the Jets. Finally, those things may end the long playoff drought. Time will tell on that one, but it seems like it will.
